reason for the decision

edit

I suspect the reason why the court ruled it was legal is because the consumer made an agreement when they bought the cartridge not to refill it in exchange for a lower price. The reduction in price is the consideration for a contract. Hence it's not actually a boxwrap contract as such- the consumer enters a contract to purchase an ink cartridge in exchange for a certain amount of money plus a promise to return the cartridge when empty. (The way I understand it, functionally you're paying for the ink in the cartridge, not the cartridge itself. Hence needing to return it afterwards.Sstabeler (talk) 22:03, 16 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
